The unique festive concert returned on Thursday, December 15, for only its second ever production, with Foundation of Light and Durham Cathedral coming together for the latest instalment, celebrating the work of the Foundation across Sunderland, South Tyneside and County Durham.
Almost 1000 guests were in attendance including Sunderland AFC chairman Kyril Louis-Dreyfus, Sporting Director Kristjaan Speakman and club legends Jimmy Montgomery and Kevin Ball.
